Silicones are nonstick, rubber-like and heat-resistant compounds commonly used in lubricants, adhesives, cookware, insulation, sealants, medical applications, and breast implants.

They are very stable and resist the effects of heat, water and oxidizing agents.

Silicones are any of a diverse class of elastomers, fluids or resins based on polymerized siloxanes, substances whose molecules consist of chains made of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms.

Silicone rubber, silicone resin, silicone oil and silicone grease are some common forms of silicone. http://cadmodels.org/

Perhaps when one considers nature’s natural water system one observers that nature constantly distills water and returns it to earth in the form of rain. As rain falls upon the high lands it run down rivers and streams and in the process it picks up minerals from the earth. As evidenced by the market for fine French mountain mineral waters perhaps nature’s method of preparing water is the optimal method for human consumption. Glacial water, marketed by a number of companies, is additional evidence that fine water connoisseurs prefer mountain mineral waters.
